Scott Brown signs with Fox News

There were reports earlier this month he was in talks with Fox, which recently cut its ties with one of its most well-known commentators, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

The former senator is considered a rising star in the Republican Party, despite his short tenure in the Senate. He won a 2010 special election to fill the seat of the late-Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) and then was defeated by Democrat Elizabeth Warren when he ran for re-election last year.

He announced earlier this month he would not run in the special election for now-Secretary of State John Kerry‘s Senate seat.

Brown has also joined the board of directors of Kadant paper company.
